The ever-expanding Pokedex of Pokemon GO has just gotten a little bigger with the debut of Bounsweet, Steenee, and Tsareena during Sustainability Week 2023. While the event only lasts for a week, Bounsweet and its evolutionary line are here to stay, so players will have endless chances to add the beloved Fruit Pokemon to their dex. Here's everything trainers need to know about catching and evolving Bounsweet in Pokemon GO.
How To Get Bounsweet in Pokemon GO
Players can catch Bounsweet in Pokemon GO starting April 20, 2023. Players can utilize usual methods like Daily Adventure Incense, regular Incense, and Lure Modules to increase spawns. There are a couple of additional ways players can catch Bounsweet during Sustainability Week 2023.
Mossy Lure Modules will be especially effective as they lure Grass-type Pokemon, narrowing the pool of potential spawns. Plus, Lure Modules affect everyone in the area, and it's always great to help out a fellow player.
During Sustainability Week 2023
Bounsweet will appear in 7km eggs acquired during Sustainability Week 2023 and have increased chances to spawn in the wild. While players can catch it at any time, players will have the best option during this event and any others that may highlight fruit or nature-themed Pokemon.
How To Get Steenee and Tsareena in Pokemon GO
Steenee and Tsareena are not available to catch in the wild. Players must evolve them using Bounsweet Candy:
- 25 Bounsweet Candy to evolve Bounsweet into Steenee
- 100 Bounsweet Candy to evolve Steenee into Tsareena
How To Get Bounsweet Candy in Pokemon GO
Players can use the following methods to increase Bounsweet Candy:
- Catching all Bounsweet with a Pinap Berry or Silver Pinap Berry will give 6 Bounsweet Candy rather than 3
- Equipping Bounsweet as a buddy will give one Bounsweet Candy per 3km walked as long as it is on the map
- Hatching 7km Eggs acquired during the Sustainability Week 2023 event will give tons of Bounsweet Candy
Can Bounsweet Be Shiny in Pokemon GO?
Unfortunately, the Bounsweet line can not yet be shiny in Pokemon GO. Players can expect shiny Bounsweet, Steenee, and Tsareena in the game in a future update in Spring 2024 at the earliest.
Pokemon GO is available for free on Android and iOS mobile devices.
